2.0 out of 5 stars A disappointment-, October 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The New Settlement Cookbook (Hardcover)

I still refer to my original settlement cookbook. I don't like the way the new book is organized. I don't feel as if it is a quick reference guide which I was hoping because that is how I use my first version. Menus aren't simple and don't help me as a working mom.

2.0 out of 5 stars misguided revision, January 19, 2007

amalle (Durham, NC United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The New Settlement Cookbook (Hardcover)

I bet the original is interesting and maybe fun to cook from. The revised edition tries to celebrate the history of the original while providing practical updates, but the result is an unsatisfying compromise that is a little like the overcooked vegetables it suggests you make -- bland, flavorless and not all that practical. Did I overextend that simile? Whatever, if you like your food history spliced with depressing 90s-era diet tips and microwave cookery, buy this book. Otherwise, uh, don't.

5.0 out of 5 stars 1951:This was my mother's first cookbook after she married ., November 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The New Settlement Cookbook (Hardcover)

This is a fabulous cookbook! I have made many of the recipes and they always come out as they are supposed to come out. Very yummy, and what I like best is that it goes way back and has ties to one of the oldest Jewish communities in the United States. (Although it is not a kosher book).
